13Th Graphic Humour International Festival

Talking about the 13Th Graphic Humour International Festival we can ask each other the reason why about an itinerant exposition, that as it is notorious need an huge organization effort.
The answer is easy: the itinerant exposition can reach a wider audience: infact every year the exposition is presented in 5 or 6 towns, while the one exposed in only one town will have an inferior number of audience.
Moreover the itinerant exposition can be shown in other countries, in other nations and also can be lent to other organizers in a global level.
Our association is a non profit making and in these crise period is much harder and tiring going on with our projects, considering that we can’t count on the same economic help as many other exposition.
But we always keep on going on, even facing some difficulties that often come against us, because we think that especially in th is period is necessary take a look at the situation with the humorist eye.

13th ITINERANT GRAPHIC HUMOUR FESTIVAL
Tattoos and T-Shirts Borderline

1st Theme :
Tattoos/tatuaggi
Tattoo art has really ancient origin, it was practised from Egyptian population. Tattoos signs has been found in 1991 in the man found under the ice in the Easter Alps between Italy and Austria. The Tattoo has been reintroduced in occidental society from adventure English men guided from Captain Cook after he came back to Tahiti in 1771.For this reason tattoe was linked to the sailormen and as between them there were people that boarded to escape from law also, it was linked to delinquency too.
In the 80’s,under the impulse of punk, heavy, rock cultures and other new tendencies young people start to get interested to tattoos

2nd Theme :
T-Shirt s/Magliette
The Hottest year period character, the T-shirt has become something much more than a clothing item. According to the researcher and writer Claudio Spuri, author of the essay “T-shirt stuff tattoos”, nowadays is a kind of a second skin.
T-shirt, as its name properly says, is the famous T shape shirt that with the passing of years became an universal clothing item.
Wonderful instrument for messages, ideas, philosophies and feelings communication, used from young people as from the adults. This simply indument is a mirror soul for those who wear it and it often become a real stuff tattoo that succeed in telling us, always and however, something more than his owner. T-shirt born in America in the early 40’s and became a part of the U.S.Navy uniform; it spreads itself in Europe during the 2nd World war. In 1950 Marlon Brando and James Dean wears it in their movies. Starting from the 60’s many rock bands start printing their logos on T-shirts. T- shirts printing, with the passing of years, became an economic way of communication to tell ideas, to advertise products and articles of all kinds until all this turned the T-shirt in a very popular article in dressing sector until it became a cult art product.
